Ben Widdicombe Blind Items

Which senior L.A. socialite, known for her fabulous jewels, almost seems to enjoy being treated for shingles? "I get to take Valtrex, which I think is very glamorous because it's like I have a sex disease," she told friends last week over lunch at the Polo Lounge.

  3. If we're talking socialites, I'm thinking Candy Spelling - god knows, she sure does have fabulous jewels.

  4. Zsa Zsa?
    Isn't her hubby a Petri dish?

  5. This would be funny if it were Kathy Hilton. She could just use Paris' prescription.

  6. I thought Liz Taylor, too, because of the jewels, but is she referred to as a socialite? I thought a socialite was someone who just has a lot of money and flaunts it. I would have thought Liz would be labled as an icon or screen legend.

  7. NOT Liz Taylor. Not my wonderful Liz. She would have been referred to as an Oscar winner. Let's consider someone with no known talent ;)

  8. I totally see Zsa Zsa saying this....

  9. I was thinking someone like Barbara Davis - her grandkids are Greasy & Gummibear, so she would possibly know about Valtrex's other uses.

  10. Kathy Hilton is the only idiot stoopid enough to be proud to have an STD.

  11. Yeah, well she must have a really mild case of shingles to be able to be out to lunch, cuz that shit HUUUUUURTS! Like hurts BAAAAAAD.

    I could barely get up to pee and I was only 29 yrs old when I had them.

    Hubby had them last summer after knee surgery and had to eat up all the Oxys his surgeon gave him.

    Sucks they don't have a shingles vaccine for anyone under 60 yrs old.

    And if you don't start taking Valtrex the very first couple of days after they begin (which is often not known until several days later once the sores/blisters appear) you're doomed--it usually won't help after that very early stage.

  12. Hey Enty, can you elaborate on the story People posted about Eddie Cibrian requesting spousal support from his soon to be ex-wife? Does she have her own money?

  13. Oh please. This is not even nearsighted. It's totally La Liz - white diamonds, the Taylor-Burton diamond, the Krupp diamond, something that belonged to Queen Mary? She wrote a book about her jewelry! Kathy Hilton and Candy Spelling have NOTHING on Liz.

    Kids today ...

    Hilton sounds like her bimbo daughter to be saying something like that.

  17. Cancan, I can't see Elizabeth Taylor being referred to as a "socialite". Ya, she has the jewels, but IMO she's so much more than a socialite.

    Candy Spelling was the first person to come to mind.

  18. Isn't Zsa Zsa so incapacitated she can't speak in complete sentences, let alone go out to lunch? But Liz Taylor is a mess too isn't she?

    ReplyDelete
  19. No way is Elizabeth Taylor a "socialite". I agree that the jewel thing makes you think of her...but that description does not fit her.

  20. i like the candy or kathy guess

    ReplyDelete
  21. I would go with the Zsa Zsa guess but isn't she too frail to go out to lunch at the Polo Lounge?

  22. I don't think Candy would consider a sex disease to be glamorous. Totally Kathy Hilton.

    Dame Elizabeth Taylor would not consider a sex disease glamorous after watching her friends die of AIDS.

  23. Zaa Zaa was hocking her jewels.

  24. GROSS....AND STUPID

  25. Liz isn't a socialite, but I think Barbara Davis, Greasybear and Gummybear's grandmother fits that description nicely.

    She could probably bum the Valtrex from Brandon since he's been fucking Parasite Hilton for years on and off.

  26. someone stupid or someone VERY old, who that back in her day would have been scandalized by such a thing? Maybe her dreck of a husband FINALLY died after all. these. years. Abuelita wants to live it up, but, well...she's 90. So live vicariously.

    I have no idea. I just made that up.

  27. It's Liz.
    The lady's getting NO action.
    That's why a sex disease sounds fun.

  28. Liz Taylor is one of the last super stars of Hollywood's Golden Age... she is not a socialite.

    Who else???
